User space can hold a tty open indefinitely and tty drivers must not
release the underlying structures until the last user is gone.
Switch to using the tty-port reference counter to manage the life time
of the greybus tty state to avoid use after free after a disconnect.

I have a couple of minor comments. I assume the
tty model matches normal patterns for get/put and
reference counted objects, and based on that I'm
ready to give a Reviewed-by, but I'd like to hear
your responses first.

So the minor number is GB_NUM_MINORS until after both the buffer
and the kfifo have been allocated. And kfifo_free() (similar to
kfree()) handles being provided a non-initialized kfifo, correct?

Why do you reorder when you allocate the gb_tty structure?
I don't have a problem with it, but it seems like the order
doesn't matter. Is it just so you can initialize it right
after it's allocated? (If so, I like that reason.)

In the error path above, you call tty_port_put()
before calling gb_connection_destroy(), which matches
(in reverse) the order in which they're created. I'm
accustomed to having the order of the calls here match
the error path. Is this difference intentional? (It
shouldn't really matter.)
